Exodus33:21
And the Lord said, " Here is a place by Me, and you shall stand on the rock.
Moses has asked to see God's glory and God says I will show you My goodness. Part of God's wonderful glory is His goodness. Maybe God showed Moses a picture of time from the Garden of Eden right up to the Cross and beyond into our time. Can you imagine being Moses standing there being literally shown the goodness of God, widescreen as it were?
Now come forward to where we are today. Who has a place by God the Father today? Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father isn't He? and we know that we,as believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, are now in Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 2:6 "and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
V7 that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness towards us in Christ Jesus."
The Lord is reminding us. We are already in 'the ages to come'. He is saying to us today, "Here is a place by Me. I want to show you all my goodness, the hugeness of My grace, My kindness. I've placed you on the rock. Let me show you my goodness!"
I don't know about you but that grabs me. God Almighty, the El Shaddai, the All Knowing One, the All Powerful One, has given you and me 'a place' beside Him and He has stuff He wants to tell us and show us. He has given us the mind of Christ to receive His ongoing revelation of Himself and His glory.
How do we access that? Well I do know that everything we receive from God is by faith so will you join with me and ask Him by faith for Him to show us His goodness, His glory, and anything He wants us to be part of?
Open the eyes of our hearts Lord.
We have a place!
